Umm…my childhood was defined by books. This definitely being a front runner in that race.For some reason this made me think of The Boxcar Children. Anyone else read these?
“One warm night four children stood in front of a bakery. No one knew them. No one knew where they had come from. Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny were orphans—Boxcar Children—looking for a place to live, determined to make it on their own.”
I definitely did a shoebox panorama for these books in my 3rd grade Reading class.
I definitely thought i was a boxcar child…I was jessie and my younger sister was violet. the boys well they were imaginary. and we totally had bread soaked in milk one time. i think deep down i was a part of the boxcar children. they definitely formed my elementary school years!
